Guild News
Plans are underway for the Oliver & Community Craft Fair scheduled
this year for November 15th and 16th. The guild will have a booth
showcasing the many and varied products of our talented members.
Marg H. is coordinating a Spinning Retreat in Osoyoos on March 21/22 2014. The estimated cost for the retreat is $255.00 and will be held at Walnut Beach Resort.
Our roots began in 1977,when a few weavers began meeting in each other's homes to encourage innovation and learning. Member Daphne Malins designed and wove her Okanagan Tartan which she registered with CIPO and as a Scottish Tartan. In 1980 the Guild adopted its current name and the tartan made its first appearance at the annual Arts and Craft Show. For more than 45 years we have been supporting spinners, weavers, knitters, felters and other fibre arts in the beautiful South Okanagan of B.C.
